this is the single worst anti--environment bill to be considered during the most anti--environment house of representatives in history. under the guise of protecting coal-mining jobs, house republicans have resurrected their most extreme anti--environmental bills. this new frankenstein legislation is a sweeping attack on environmental protection, many of which have nothing to do with coal. it's an all-out assault in america's bedrock environmental protections. since 1970, when richard nixon was the president of the united states, the u.s. has had a national policy that air should be safe enough for people to breathe. the republican bill that we are considering today would overturn this policy and cut the heart out of the clean air act by allowing air quality standards to be set on the basis of polluter profits rather than health. this would reverse decades of progress in cleaning up our air. and the gentleman who last spoke on the floor says he likes the fact that we have cleaner air. but enough is enough. the standards -- the standards that we see being changed would no longer be based
